[Travel] Does Google map work in Korea?

Yes, Google Maps works in Korea and so as Apple Maps too. However, there may be some limitations to its functionality in Korea. For example, Google Maps or Apple Maps may not be as detailed or accurate as local Korean mapping services like Naver Maps or KakaoMap when it comes to searching for specific locations or navigating smaller streets and alleys.

There are several map options available for travelers in Korea. Here are some of the most popular ones:

  • Naver Maps: Naver Maps is a Korean mapping service that is widely used in Korea. It offers detailed maps and real-time traffic information, as well as information on public transportation and nearby businesses and attractions. Naver Maps is available as a mobile app for Android and iOS devices.

  • KakaoMap: KakaoMap is another popular mapping service in Korea. It offers similar features to Naver Maps, including real-time traffic information and public transportation information. KakaoMap is also available as a mobile app for Android and iOS devices.

Overall, there are plenty of map options available for travelers in Korea, such as VisitKorea or Citymapper and it's worth trying out a few different ones to see which one works best for your needs.
